@Ford winter is back and its happening again. Car heats up, I drive for some distance with the defroster on and then I get this grinding noise every time I turn it off.

Has anyone else had this sound before? It sounds like an HVAC issue or Vacuum leak that when under load at low RPMs and accelerating it makes the suction sound then its almost like a valve or door quickly seals it shut. Ive had this 2.3L base 2 door since October 2022 and it started happening...

Same noise for me too!

Nope! I brought it in today and the dealer fixed the issue. I am picking it back up soon. If I experience the issue again I will respond to this thread and will bring it back to the dealer. Let me know if you would still like my VIN.

UPDATE: The light eventually turned off. I still brought it in. They said the computer stored the code and they were able to find it and it’s the exact issue and resolution described in this thread. Ford has a bulletin the dealership has access to and the solution was to replace the vacuum...

Same issue with me. 2022 2 door base 2.3l automatic with 14k miles. Taking it to dealer on Wednesday 6/5/24. Was driving in the highway and light came on. Parked it and started it back up and light stayed on.

Has anyone figured out a good way to fill the space with more storage from the back of the drawer to the seat backs?

Figured it out. After removing the drawer to install I did not push hard enough when putting it back in. Really needs a good push. Also another tidbit, the top bolt holes for the tie downs are loose rounded nuts underneath. Instead of using them I lightly threaded a bolt and smacked them...

So I’m doing this because I got a steal on a drawer from FB market place for $200. I’m running into an issue though. I…. removed seats Put bolts back in for the front seat mounts Screwed nut on rear seat mounts Placed threaded spacers on tie down threaded holes. Second one in from tailgate...

What’s it like parking with that bumper? I usually use the trail sites as reference points but that bumper sticks out so much further

Same here, got caught in snow storm and it would get dangerous.

Yeehaw! This is definitely an improvement over my $30 Amazon compressor.

Base 2dr auto with switches and roof rack. I’m young with only a girlfriend and 2 dogs. 4 door base was a little too much money and I don’t need the space, also the hardtop would cost way more. I also street park in the city so 2 door is really good size. Couldn’t afford the SAS package but I...

Yeah the material is luxurious but still wipes down and there's no disconnect of materials since it covers everything. Worth the money.

Please check out Tux Matts on Amazon. Even for 2 door bronco. I have them and 100% of my carpet is covered and they have a great finish on them. Has them in my 2 door JL too and when I traded it in this was the first thing I bought.
